you are in tourist areas. you get tourist prices. I just came back from Italy. In most local cafe's coffee is 1-2 euro. This is my 4th time in 4 years. I went once to Rome, Florence, Pisa, Como etc to see tourist things. Now I just go to 1 place in Tuscany for the last 3 years and venture off from there. Rome is cool once, its worth the extra expense to see the history. I went to a few cafe's in Rome that weren't that much.
I would take Europe of Asia any day of the week. I never have problems with people not liking me because i'm a tourist in Europe. Not sure where this comes from.
